Robert Marucci makes no apologies for performing in porn and considers his work like any other job. . . .
His mother, Melyssa Lieb, said she knew her son was working in adult films, adding that he took the roles to support her financially.
“I think he’s the most awesome person in the world,” she said. . . .
Lieb said the [Cocoa High School] principal told her, “He was expelled due to his explicit lifestyle career.”
“I think that it is Dr. [Stephanie] Soliven’s morals and her personal beliefs and I don’t think that this is anybody’s business except for my son’s,” said Lieb.

Marucci has appeared in several scenes on the bareback gay porn site [which I won’t name or link] . . . known for using clean-cut, all-American type boys in explicit condom-less sex. Appearing under the stage name “Noel,” Marucci, who doesn’t identify as gay, is seen in a film participating in a six-man bareback orgy.

So it was not “safe sex,” and the “clean-cut, all-American type” who did an orgy with five other guys “doesn’t identify as gay.”

The district denies that Robert Marucci was previously suspended because of his role in gay pornography and said the principal, who has taken a lot of heat because of the incident, called Marucci this morning. Brevard Schools spokeswoman Michelle Irwin said Principal Stephanie Soliven and Marucci reached an agreement and he would return to school on Wednesday. . . .
“It’s easy to become emotional about a situation when it looks like a student is being targeted for his lifestyle choices, that is not the case here,” Irwin said. . . .
“We would never suspend a student for his job or job-related activities,” Irwin, the district spokeswoman, told FLORIDA TODAY this morning.

UPDATE III: In a comment below, “Art Deco” says Florida public records show that Marucci’s mother, Melyssa Lieb, 41, was only briefly married to the boy’s father, Robert L. Marucci, Jr., in 1996-97. If Markus’s online document research is correct, the porn star’s father had previously been divorced in 1994, and the teenager’s grandfather, Robert L. Marucci, Sr., was also twice divorced in 1978 and 1981. So that would be four divorces in less than 20 years for two generations of Marucci men.
